Ep. 272 - Mike Tuchscherer: Peaking After 20 Years of Powerlifting

The man, the myth, the legend, Mike T is back! Fresh off a 900kg total, an 800lbs deadlift, and placing just off the podium at Powerlifting America National by bodyweight, Mike T is showing how much longevity can be had for the lifelong lifter, even at the highest level. We've only got a penlight in this pitch-dark morphing cave, but that's apparently all you need. Join us on this episode where we discuss mental maturity and growth as a lifter, Mike's journey and his future plans in equipped lifting!
